Today, I’m talking about my fiction reader’s newsletter. About 2600 subscribers receive it monthly, so I include plenty of free ebooks and research tidbits to intrigue them.
If you read mystery or fantasy, take a look at the March Newsletter. It includes the first chapter of a special novella I’m writing for a paranormal mystery anthology. Subscribers will also get links to a free copy when it comes out.
Curiosity piqued? Visit maajawentz.com to subscribe and get a free ebook of “Inside of a Dog,” (a mystery short published by Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine). Expect the next reader newsletter on April 2nd.
Creative Prompt
This weekend, I’ve been compulsively prompting images in Midjourney. Who can help it when it’s so much fun?
Your creative prompt this week is to think of an activity that you can do for hours without feeling the passage of time. For a lot of people, that might be listening to music (or playing it). Others don’t feel time’s flight while baking, drawing, or woodworking.
Meditation with benefits
If you lack a creative outlet that gets you into the zone—that state of timeless, creative concentration—try to find one. It’s like meditation with benefits.
For inspiration, here is a pic I made this afternoon. It’s based on Yggdrasill, the Old Norse World Tree.
Have a creative week!
